Believe For A Miracle

“Then He went up into the boat to them, and the wind ceased. And they were greatly amazed in themselves beyond measure, and marveled. For they had not understood about the loaves, because their heart was hardened.”  (Mark 6: 51-52)

“These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.”  (1 Corinthians 2:13-14)
 
Despite their close relationship with Jesus, the disciples struggled to believe. Obviously, for them, moving beyond their personal level of spiritual experience to fully grasp the miracles in Jesus’s ministry was not a simple matter. Their understanding was limited. 
 
Like them, we hesitate when the Spirit of God does something we cannot explain intellectually or that might “cost” us in some way. The reason we hesitate is the mind naturally overrules anything we cannot understand, and the heart hardens in unbelief, determined to understand completely or we will not believe. 

The miraculous power of God is supernatural, so only if we agree with that possibility can we personally see daily expressions of the Lord’s miraculous, supernatural power. The Lord reveals truth via the agent of the Holy Spirit, and we receive this Spirit ministry spiritually, through the spirit heart. This is the way our Spirit life works. The only way.
 
Stay in faith for the thing that’s impossible right now. Agree with God’s love. Agree with His power. Believe Him. Don’t stop.  
 
Amen.
